The Bone King (also known as the Green Bone Leader[1]) is the ruler of the Greenbone Warriors.
History[]
Background[]
At some point between Samukai's defeat and the Merge, the Bone King would become the ruler of the Underworld. Sometime later, he would be forcibly dethroned and imprisoned in a mystical prison beneath the Sea of Sand. Five bone weapons were needed to free him.
One day, while training in the basement of Sea of Sand, the ninja came across the Bone King and his army of Greenbone Warriors, who, as it turned out, were looking for bone weapons.[2] After many battles, the Greenbone Warriors captured all five bone weapons and freed the Bone King. The Bone King then launched an attack on Ninjago City to begin a new era of Skulkin. The ninja discovered a way to defeat the Bone King by taking his bone weapons and locking him again in a mystical prison under the Sea of Sand.[3]
During the Merge, the Underworld merged with the other realms, leaving the Bone King and his Greenbone Warriors without a home. He and a small group of warriors then relocated to a forest.
Wyldly Inappropriate[]
Kai and Wyldfyre found themselves ensnared within the Walls of Punishment, when an opportunity for escape presented itself through the intervention of the Bone King. In exchange for their freedom, the Bone King requested the return of their precious gems, assuring them that he would release them upon compliance. However, Kai maintained that they were devoid of the gems, explaining that their recent halt in the forest was solely for the purpose of rest. Wyldfyre's disparaging remarks towards the Greenbone Warriors provoked the Bone King's impatience, resulting in the reactivation of the walls. As Kai and Wyldfyre successfully evade the confines of the Walls of Punishment, the Bone King asserted that if they refuse to comply, he will resort to more conventional means of eliminating them.
Kai denied having the Greenbone Warriors' gems, but the Bone King demanded their immediate return. Reluctantly, Wyldfyre decided to comply and gave away the gems. The Bone King expressed regret for not punishing them, but Kai proposed that returning the gems should be seen as a fair resolution. However, Wyldfyre couldn't resist pulling another prank and burned the Bone King's hand when he tried to shake on their agreement. Kai and Wyldfyre escaped on Heatwave, while the Greenbone Warriors threw their swords at them but failed to hit their target.

Trivia[]
- The fact that the Bone King seems not to recognize Kai, whom he has already encountered several times as an enemy, means either that he simply doesn't recognise one of the ninja (just like Gulch not recognizing Zane), or that the comics he appeared in are non-canon.
